Dreer's Reliable VEGETABLE SEEDS 



Dwrarf or Bush Beans 



Wax or Yellow-Pod Varieties 



These Wax Beans are preferred by quite a few gardeners on account of 

 their beautiful light color and their mild flavor. They are grown in the same 

 manner as the green-pod varieties and those with black seeds may be sown 

 considerably earlier than those which have lighter colored seeds. All varieties 

 we list have proved to produce heavy crops of attractive appearance under 

 most varied conditions of soil and weather. For the control of the bean beetle 

 spray or dust w^ith Dutox. 



65 Black Wax or Pencil Pod, Improved. An extra fine, early Bean of 

 the higliest quality which like others of the black-seeded varieties may be 

 planted earher than seed of other colors, being much hardier. The pods 

 are from 6 to 7 inches long, round, nearly straight, positively stringless, 

 and of a clear yellow. The plants are very strong and bear abundantly.

71 Golden Wax, Improved Rust-Proof. The vines grow erect and 

 bear the pods well off the ground, preventing rust and rot. The pods average 

 five inches long. They are quite fleshy, straight, broad, flat, of a rich golden 

 yellow color, and stringless at all stages. A sure cropper for the small garden.

76 Refugee Stringless Wax. A vigorous, hardy, main crop variety,

 home. Pkt. 10c; J lb. 25c; lb. 40c; 2 lbs. 70c; 5 lbs. $1.65, prepaid. 



79 Round-Pod Kidney or Brittle Wax. A fine early Bean of very 

 high quality and one that we can unhesitatingly recommend. The pods 

 grow up to 6 inches long. They are thick, perfectly round, and of a clear 

 yellow color. So brittle and stringless are the pods that the variety is often 

 called for under the name of Brittle Wax. Pkt. 10c; § lb. 25c; lb. 40c; 

 2 lbs. 70c; 5 lbs. $1.65, prepaid. 



84 Sure-Crop Stringless Wax. Much resembles Bountiful in the sturdy 

 character and disease resistant constitution of its plants. It starts bearing 

 within 60 days after seeds are sown. The pods average 6 to 7 inches long. 

 They are very meaty, flat but thick through. In common with most black- 

 seeded varieties it is very hardy and may therefore be planted several days 

 earlier than the light-seeded sorts. Pkt. 10c; § lb. 25c; lb. 40c; 2 lbs. 70c; 

 5 lbs. $1.65, prepaid.
